Even More Daredevil Fun!

The Daredevil TV show is only a week away on Netflix, and early reviews are burning across the Internet! People who have seen a few preview episodes are raving about this show. So obviously, that has me very excited! I cannot wait for this show!

To tide us all over, here are two back-to-back new trailers in one video!

Can’t wait! Can’t wait! I can’t freakin’ wait! Somebody make it Friday already! Oh wait, it is Friday! Gah!

The New Daredevil Trailer is Chillingly Good!

Somebody get me Netflix on the phone, I need to buy all the subscriptions! The second trailer for the upcoming Daredevil TV show has hit the web, and it is mind-blowingly cool!

Oh man, that was exciting! The characters, the physicality, the Kingpin, the MCU references, the blood, the music, the darkness, the dialogue; it all looks great! I am so pumped for this show. And I am so pumped for it to be amazing. I hope Daredevil really takes off for Marvel and Netflix. I hope people flocked to the show.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: this is a great time to be alive!

First Daredevil Trailer is Dark and Bloody!

There’s going to be a Daredevil TV show, people! Live action, potentially multiple seasons, and it’s coming out in April on Netflix! It’s still hard to wrap my brain around this amazing fact! Now we can check out the first trailer!

No red costume yet, but we know it’s coming (hopefully they skip the yellow one)! The show looks dark, gritty, and yet heroic too. I’m really excited for this show – and this is coming from a guy who enjoys the Ben Affleck movie.

What a time to be alive!

Daredevil is Getting All Manner of Serious

The new Daredevil TV show (I can’t believe I wrote those words!) will premiere on April 10 on Netflix, putting it ahead of Avengers: Age of Ultron! There’s even a nifty teaser trailer.

This show is getting really serious! It’s really going to come out! I’m still in a bit of shock at the whole idea of these Netflix Defenders. Can Marvel pull it off as well as they have their Cinematic Universe? All signs point to definitely. Man, this is going to be a great year for comic book fans!

This is really happening!

Marvel Casts Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, and the Netflix Defenders Are One Step Closer to Reality

There was a moment the other night, while I was watching the Flash vs. Arrow two-parter, that a giddy sensation came over me. It was a moment of pure geeky delight as I realized, with full force, that I was watching Green Arrow and the Flash team-up on TV, and it wasn’t a cartoon, it wasn’t a joke; it was real, awesome, live action TV. It was the same kind of excitement I felt during The Avengers movie, seeing the likes of Iron Man, Captain America and Thor all team up for the first time.

We are living in a world where this sort of comic book reality is becoming more commonplace, and it’s just going to get more awesome from here. I’m beside myself with joy.

So to hear that Marvel has cast Jessica Jones, and possibly even Luke Cage, for their Defenders series is even more exciting. These TV shows are going to happen. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is going to get bigger. This is just…it’s just cool, is what I’m trying to say. So very cool.

The casting announcements come by way of Deadline.

Jessica Jones will be played by Krysten Ritter, who I’m pretty sure I like. I knew I recognized her from somewhere, and a quick check of IMDB reveals that she had an ongoing role on Veronica Mars, which I binged on this summer.

She probably won’t be in costume, but there were very few Jessica Jones pics online

She looks like a good choice to me! For those who don’t know, Jessica Jones is a former superhero and Avenger who decided to retire to the life of a cynical P.I. after a rather horrific encounter with a supervillain.

Deadline is less sure about the casting of Mike Colter as Luke Cage.

He probably won’t be called ‘Power Man’, and I don’t blame them

I don’t remember him from anything I’ve seen, so he’s new to me! I’m sure he’ll be fine! For those who don’t know, Luke Cage is Power Man, a former convict who agreed to an experimental procedure to get time off his sentence. That procedure gave him super strength and invulnerable skin, so he probably got the better of that deal.

Jessica and Luke are also kind of an item.

All that’s left to cast is Iron Fist, and then the Defenders will be complete! Though personally, I hope they slip in a few other minor characters for fun. Maybe Stingray? A guy can dream.
